This is one of my favorite places on earth. My family and I have spent many summer vacations here and have many wonderful memories. So, when I got the chance to do a shoot for The Hyatt in Siesta Key, I couldn’t pack my gear fast enough…

One of the perks of doing what I do is that I’m always traveling. I love to travel. I was doing a shoot in Albuquerque, NM and had a down day in between shoots. So, it was a no-brainer, I was going to Taos! Ever since art school and studying some of Ansel Adams work I wanted to see this amazing place. And it did not disappoint. Here are a few shots I took that day.

I’ve been collecting balls for the past 20 years. When I was growing up my life centered around playing baseball. One of my favorite memories is of my Dad playing catch with my Brother and me in our backyard for countless hours. We had a very large yard that was lined by huge pine trees. As you can imagine, many baseballs got lost in that tree line. So when I would go looking for a ball that got past me, I would usally come out with one or two extra balls that may have been hidden from years gone by. What I loved about this was how, sometimes… the ball had been aged and weathered leaving a beautiful patina. I guess that’s what really started my interest in my ball collection.
